^^^that was a bit more eloquent than the reply I was formulating.

while the "super sprag" was designed to help "PREVENT" this, it's better than stock, but not guaranteed.

opinions are fine... but don't preach ____ as gospel. It's my opinion that if you are running slicks at a race track... it can happen. What you do to help prevent is solely up to you.

this car was street/strip with the engine set back about 8". Foot brake, and had been running low 11oh off the spray. 8.75 rear. Early 90's pre internet and we both had no idea that this could even happen. Chuck Lofgren was at the track that weekend and came over for a look and educated us. Blankets/shield for everything from that time on.... and we went away from the 8.75. Again, personal choice, but we were trying to improve on reliability.

btw it wasn't until we had the car home that we discovered we couldn't get the axles out.... rear gear had broken. No indication during burnout or moving up to the beams.



sorry to [censored] into your post Dave... but we make choices in this hobby. Sometimes we wish we made better ones
